This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.by: Joey08/30/2023
Package was damaged, and paint was chipped. Quality of the shipping and packaging department needs to be improved. Hitches have weight to them and need to be more protected and boxes need to be better quality for strength.
by: Jesse09/11/2023
The hitch is well built, and exactly what I was looking for: a beefier option than the factory that sits up close to the bumper. The factory receiver would bend down with less than the rated tongue weight.
Since my truck came with the factory towing package, I had two options cut the receiver portion off of the bumper brace, or remove the bumper brace. I didn't like the idea of removing the bumper brace, so I opted to cut off the factory receiver. This can be done with a combination of cut-off discs and a long metal cutting blade on a powered hack saw.
The specifications for this product state that this is only for the 8'bed. I was told that there would be some slight interference with an exhaust hanger, that could be modified. I didn't encounter any issues with the exhaust, and the only modification needed was to drill 1/2" holes for the forward mounting bolts.
Since the bolts need to be dropped in through the frame rails, it is fantastic that Curt includes a special tool to guide the bolts into position. They would have been a real bear to install without them.
There could be potential to reinforce it further by connecting the receiver to the bumper support. I debated this, but decided to wait to see if it needs any with the loads I will be hauling.
The packaging it was shipped in was simply a cardboard box, so of course there wasn't much left of the box by the time it arrived. Fortunately the Curt's powder coating was substantial, and not much scratching occurred, but I wouldn't recommend for a show truck.

I had a difficult time finding & choosing a receiver hitch for my older Dodge until I checked etrailer.com. The amount & quality of the information available made it much easier to find an applicable hitch. I was pleasantly surprised with their best price guarantee & at how quick it arrived. There was a little bit of a learning curve with the install kit, but again, the quality information & tip videos on the etrailer site made the job very easy...& as advertised for my hitch...NO DRILLING REQUIRED! I would recommend etrailer.com to anyone needing towing equipment & will use them again myself in the future.

Hitch arrived earlier than expected. Box was beat up and hitch paint marked up. One nut somehow came out of the bag but thankfully did not fall out of the box. Hitch could have been wrapped so shippers couldn’t take away from the factory finish. Beyond that, hitch was easy to install. The wire to fish through to pull the bolts into place was brilliant once I realized you push it through then attach the bolt into it.

Solid hitch and easy install. Aftermarket exhaust was in the way so it took a little longer than normal due to having to move hanger mounts.

2003 Dodge Ram Pickup
This is a great receiver hitch - well made, is a true no drill installation and fits the ball mount perfectly on my 2003 Dodge Ram 2500.
However, the directions need a bit of clarification/re-writing since on a Ram 2500 (and possibly other Ram trucks) the fasteners need installed in a particular order due to space restrictions. I'd recommend the following procedure. Install the square and rectangular washers used in the frame tubes. You'll need a 3 foot piece of #12 copper wire and some tape to get the rectangular washer into position. It looks like it'd go through the frame hole but mine was just a bit too big so I attached the wire to it and fished it into position like you'll do with the screws later.
Next, attach one of the screws to the fish-wire. Have a buddy help hoist the hitch into place and then use the fish wire to get a bolt into the rearmost vertical hole near the end of the tube. Screw on the nut - repeat on the other side. Align the hitch, then tighten down and torque to 110 lb-ft. This needs done since there is almost no way to properly torque it with the flange bolt installed...just not enough room. See photo.
Install the other fasteners and torque down...done!
Look forward to towing a travel trailer with this hitch!

Thank you---for your incredible service and help. I really appreciate communicating with your service people. UPS lost my first ordered hitch but e-trailer made everything right. The second hitch didn't arrived on Monday but did arrived on Wednesday evening.
I'm thankful for the great service of e-trailer and those who still care about customers.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch
- Correct Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 Made After and Before Nov. 2002If the white sticker inside the driver door jamb on your 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 reads 07/2002 as the date of manufacture, the correct Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for you will be part # C14020, not part # 14361 which is for trucks made after 11/2002. This trailer hitch has the same class IV rating, 2" receiver tube opening, and plenty of capacity for your 6,500 lb camper just like the one you were looking at. It also offers a completely drill free installation and is made right here in the USA.

The Class III etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98852 or Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13333 is the best option for light towing. They are very simple to put on with zero drilling required and have a 6,000 lb towing and 600 lb tongue weight capacity, which is more than enough for most Ram 1500 models (please refer to your owner's manual for your specific capacity as...

The HEMI Sport is an add-on factory package that features, among other things, different trim at the rear that prevents fitment with this hitch. As long as you don't have this particular package the hitch will work great. The Class III hitch features a 10,000 pound towing weight capacity...
view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation for a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 Towing a 7800 lb TrailerThe Curt Hitch part # 14361 that you referenced would be a great hitch for your 2005 Dodge Ram 1500. I checked with Curt and this hitch will fit your truck as long as it is not a 6 foot bed. If you do have a 6 foot bed you could get the Draw Tite Hitch part # 75420 as this is a similar hitch that would work with a 6 foot bed. Both hitches have enough capacity for your trailer.
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Receiver Hitch for 2004 Dodge Ram 1500The correct hitch for your truck will depend on what capacity you were needing. For instance, if you'll be towing trailers weighing less than 6000 lbs, a Class III hitch like the # 75662 would be ideal. The hitch would bolt to the existing crossmember and the rear bumper. For a heaver trailer (assuming your truck has the necessary capacity), a Class IV hitch like # 14361 would work well. The Curt # C15409 you referenced is only a fit for trucks already equipped with the factory hitch. You...

The Curt Class III Hitch, # 13333, is a custom-fit hitch that uses a bolt-on mount to connect to your Ram truck. The hitch has a gross towing capacity of 6,000 lbs and a tongue weight rating of 600 lbs. This hitch has a 2 x 2 inch receiver opening.

That being said you would need to talk to someone at the Chrysler/Dodge dealer to obtain the actual ratings on your hitch and truck. You should be able to find the tow ratings on your truck in the owners manual or inside the drivers door jamb. Also if you could find out the manufacturer of the hitch on your dodge that would help.

I have included a link to a video showing and example installation of this hitch for you. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4.

If the beam on the hitch has mounting holes that are 12-1/2 inches apart you should be able to mount the hitch on your vehicle with no problems. If your Ram is a 2001 or a 2002 with build date after 11/01 you will need a cross frame style hitch like the Curt Class IV Hitch, item # 14361.

- Curt Trailer Hitch for a 2007 Dodge Ram PickupThe Curt Class IV Hitch, part # 14361 is a fit for your 2007 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 Long Bed provided you don't have the factory installed tow package on the vehicle. If you do, you'll instead want the Draw-Tite Class IV & V Ultra Frame, part # 41929.
view full answer... - Class IV Hitch Recommendation for 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 to Replace Class III Curt HitchSounds like you have the Curt Class III hitch part # 13333 installed on your 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 based on what you described and the fact Curt did not make the OEM hitches for your truck. So for a higher rated hitch that fits your truck we have the Curt Class IV hitch part # 14361 which is a fit and has a much higher towing capacity at 10,000 lbs trailer weight.
view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation for a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 without Factory HitchFor your 2012 Ram 1500 without a factory hitch the correct part number for a Curt Class IV hitch would be the # 14374. The # 14361 is designed to fit older 1500 models so it would not work for you. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

But this hitch might be a bit of an overkill since its capacity is 10,000 pound gross trailer weight. It is a great option if you will be towing a heavier trailer in the future. But if you do not anticipate towing any more than the 4,500 pound trailer then I recommend hitch # 13333 which is rated for 6,000 pound gross trailer weight and 600 pounds tongue weight. When used with weight...

But it does not fit HemiSport Quad Cab, Ram Rumble Bee or SRT-10 models. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you. I also recommend etrailer ball mount # EBMK2416. It comes with a ball mount, 2 hitch balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. If you need to add trailer wiring use # C55504.

It's a Class-IV hitch and has a gross trailer weight of 10,000 pounds. See the diagram I created for you. You will want to use that dimension and compare it to where your current hitch sits.

- Hitch Applications for a 2003 Dodge TruckI would recommend the Curt Class IV Trailer Hitch, item # 14361, for your 2003 Dodge truck. This is a frame mount hitch which will not require you to remove the knockouts in the factory bumper cover and it has a higher towing capacity which will allow for more towing options and greater safety when towing. There are no pitfalls to this hitch that I know of. The Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, item # 13326, is also a good hitch the only downfall is that if the tongue is overloaded the bumper...

Thank you for letting us know! I recommend touching up the hitch with a rust resistant paint like Rustoleum prior to installation. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
